7. Click the
q
icon at the right end of the
FRAME RATE
line. From the dropdown list, select a number between 1 and 30
(frames per second). The higher the frame rate (30 fps), the smoother the video motion. However, higher frame rates consume
storage space faster.
8. Click the
q
icon at the right end of the

q
icon at the right end of the
RECORD MODE
line. From the dropdown list, select either ALWAYS or SCHEDULE.

Scheduled recording below.
